i950
 

Is this chip any good for mild overclocking? MC has them for $199 and I need a spare 1366 i7.

Anyone?

About like the 920's MD.

Get a B if you can

MD do you live near MC ? wanna pick me up a 2600k :D

less than 5 miles dude, and saw one in stock yesterday. I can get a price after tax and all and let you know if you want

No comments on the 950 for a gamer? oops, missed some - thanks all :)

fine for a gamer. High multi makes clocking easier...

I never used one though.

sure pm me ;)

950 should last many yrs unless u want a 2600k lol

how hi is the multi. I'm used to being un-multi constrained :rofl:

23 default, + turbo?

^ word but iirc when Splave was ripping into these 950's there was a 24x multi issue. Could have been hammered out through bios updates but I vividly remember him sticking to 23x no turbo with high bclk.

I have heard lots of people talk about even multis on i7 being bad juju.

23 is great though two higher than 920.

Wish MC still had the 920s in stock, last I saw they were 180. (Which I paid for my first 2 920s used :O )
